Silk charmeuse is just the thing to elevate your d Silk charmeuse is just the thing to elevate your day. It is so silky and smooth. I love working it into one of your looks because you can do so much with it and it feels so good to wear.

Emma is a 2022 high school senior and we opted not to follow the influencer trend where all the photos are made outside with strong backlight. I can do that kind of imagery, but Oregon weather can be fickle and we decided to go with the safer route in-studio. I'll share more from Emma's session in the next couple weeks.

I'm actually thinking about printing this photo in a really huge size to display in my studio to illustrate how much detail there is in these images. When you get in close you can even see the fine wrinkles where we didn't steam the wrinkles out of the silk! 😂

Note: my studio now offers zero-interest financing via Synchrony for image packages.

Today is the one-year anniversary that sparked an uprising. Despite what the discouraging numbers say, I know a lot of White people who want to see justice and equality in this country.

And I am one of them.

Today I renewed my resolve to take anti-racist actions. One way I've been doing this is by offering free headshots to Black women, Trans, and women of color who are running for public office. Very happy with the results of the most recent election outcome! (Congrats Laural O'Rourke!)

I also want to help minorities gain financial power. There is a new book out by Rachel Rodgers @rachrodgersesq
That is sooooooo good! I've already gifted it to two friends. It's called We Should All Be Millionaires. She has stepped up and is leading a movement of Black women, non-binary, and women of color toward financial independence. Instead of asking for change, these folks are making the money that will fund the change needed in the world. It is a very welcoming community and I am loving The Club. Check it out!

You are beautiful and worthy of your best life exa You are beautiful and worthy of your best life exactly how you are. When women come for their beauty photoshoot the focus is on bringing out more of your awesomeness.

Most importantly, we realize that an external transformation is not the most important thing about this experience.

Seeing ourselves in a new light can inspire emotional shifts that help us come into our confidence. Negative thought patterns often blind us to our potential and limiting beliefs prevent us from pursuing our dreams. 

Challenging that internal dialogue with tangible proof of our strength and beauty shifts our horizon and we can dare to manifest our most audacious dreams.

And, we have fun 😁

I love seeing the level of detail in photographs. I love seeing the level of detail in photographs. I realize that it's probably not as interesting to everyone else, but it is important when considering prints. I know, digital is dominant, but print is permanent. I love my professional grade Canon printers. They give me a level of control over the entire process and outcome. Seeing beautiful portraits coming out of the printer bit by bit gives me goosebumps.

I admit that I am not in the business of making images for the quick thrill of sharing images in an image-clogged world. I love making photographs that will be passed on to great-grandchildren.

However, it is important to know that when you book a session at my studio, it is not the paper and ink you are purchasing. You are investing in the transformation, the experience, and the realization. Prints are just one of the perks.

My favorite photo from Michelle's 50th birthday ph My favorite photo from Michelle's 50th birthday photoshoot. She has such great energy and the best smile. I think it's so important that women see that spark continue as we enter the middle part of our lives. Your energy is what makes you beautiful, not your age.

Do you think mainstream trends are finally starting acknowledge this? How far do we have left go to?

This amazing woman has shown me how I want to be w This amazing woman has shown me how I want to be when I reach 50: celebrating life and fit enough to do it all. She has an amazing story. She came into my studio a few years ago when she discovered crossfit and has really turned her health around. And now, celebrating her 50th birthday (whaaat!?) I see someone who has aged backwards! It's all about finding your happiness, and I believe she is doing it!

I hope you are finding your happiness too!

It is impossible to know exactly how a final edit It is impossible to know exactly how a final edit of an image is going to turn out, but Kiki was game to try whatever we pulled out of the wardrobe for her senior graduation photos.

High school and college grad photo season is coming up 🎓 Typically this is the last time that many people have their photo professionally made until they get married. 👰👰🏽 

My advice is this: don't go to Sears to mark this special occasion. 😆

I'm not pitching you to try to get you to come to my studio because I have limitations: I don't like going outside with my gear and I know that many seniors love to be in the great outdoors to mark their new milestone. So definitely find someone who thrives in the environment you love.  Just make sure that they will make images that you will love in 10, 20, and 50 years from now. These are the photos that get passed down for generations. ❤

Generations of strength and beauty. It is a wonder Generations of strength and beauty. It is a wonderful experience for me to create images of a family with a wonderful connection to each other. These are the kinds of images that will last for generations. This moment in their lives has passed, and the next chapter is being written.

What story do you want me to capture for you? I still have a few sessions open in May. Send me a DM for info.

I can't believe it's been two years since we made I can't believe it's been two years since we made this photo. Nina, do you miss these two small children? Now that my son is 21 I wish I could have just one more moment to hold his baby self and kiss his pudgy cheeks and listen to his baby breaths while he sleeps. Time is so fleeting. And the little ones in this photo have grown and moved on to worm hunting and horse riding. Do you remember how worried you were about the pregnancy weight? I am so glad you came into the studio. Being a mom is so important. It is so important to be in photos with your kids and you look magnificent! Every mother deserves beautiful photos with their children. Can you imagine?? Your grandchildren will hold these photos some day.
